US Senator John Kerry has an op-ed in The National today on the way forward for Yemen.

He makes a number of very good points. The most important of which, in my mind, is opening GCC countries back up to Yemeni labor. There is no silver bullet solution to Yemen’s problems. Instead, there have to be a variety of different steps taken and, in my opinion, opening the GCC back up to Yemenis is the single most important step that can have the most impact in the near term.
